Travel Vaccinations

Before you travel abroad it may be necessary to check with your travel agent and the Practice whether or not you need special injections or medication for the country you are travelling to. In some cases you can be denied entry to a country if you do not have a certificate proving that you have had the necessary injections.

The Practice can advise whether or not we give particular injections and how much they will cost.

You must ensure you are vaccinated at least 6 weeks before departure where it is necessary. Malaria tablets have to be taken as advised before departure.

The Practice Nurses run Travel Clinics where they can advise about vaccinations and travel health. You must fill out a Travel Vaccination Form and return it to Reception at least three days before your Travel Clinic appointment.
